i’ve had a few requests for nursing  aprons since i last made one. i decided since it’s been pretty much a baby boom i thought i’d list at least one in the shop (hopefully more to come…)

this apron is in my shop and it’s currently on sale for $20 AND it comes with a drawstring bag! it’s made with a kind of retro floral print in browns and pinks/purples. there is a pink terry cloth corner in case you need to wipe baby’s mouth, and also has boning in the neckline so you can still baby while you are nursing. the straps are adjustable due to the d-rings.

here are a few more Marlo Bloom Bags that i recently made!

this one made with Amy Butler’s Lotus print is my favorite:

followed by this Rambling Rose print:

and of course i can never get enough pink…i think the contrasting polka dots makes the pink jaquard  a lot more fun though:

and last but not least, i made this Stepping Stone one for one of my friends’ mom’s:

here’s another baby shower gift set listed in my shop!

this set is made with a pink and brown paisley fabric and includes a large diaper tote bag, chenille blanket, burp cloth and bib set, sensory blanket, and sensory block!

just thought i’d share my latest stash from a trip i made to Ikea!

starting from the top lefthand side are two prints from the Gunilla collection (i was bummed because when the girl was cutting the orange print she said they had the same print in blue that was going to be shipped within a few days…i was just a bit too early!), the black and white birds from the Cecilia collection, the green and white flowers are from the Hjordis collection, and the two bolts of childrens fabric are from the Barnslig collection (i think these will make great unisex kids gifts!)

Alexander Henry’s Starling fabric has been one of my most recent favorites! (i got it in pink, white, and purple!!) i decided to use the pink fabric for an entire collection set! just listed in my shop is the Mom-On-The-Go Gift set. it’s the perfect size bag when you don’t want to lug around a full-size diaper bag. the small tote bag comes with a key fob and padded zipper pouch for mom, and also comes with an appliqued onesie, set of burp cloths, bib, and sensory blanket for baby!

this makes a great baby shower gift when you’re looking for something unique and not off the registry!

one of my nieces just turned five so i thought in addition to her store bought gift i’d make her a little something fun. i wasn’t quite sure what to make and when i saw this memory game in Alicia Paulson’s book, Stitched In Time, i thought it would be perfect!

i used a fuschia and black floral print for one side of the tiles and a black and white polka dot print for the other. the original instructions called for felt in between the layers, but i used fusible fleece instead. all in all it was a fairly simple project to make, and added a personal touch to a gift!

here’s another gift set i made for the shop! (just an fyi, i will be listing a lot more children’s gift sets in the upcoming weeks as i realize there seems to be a baby boom and this has been the bulk of my orders lately!! also, i will be including unisex gift sets as well since it seems to be a common theme these days for parents not to find out the sex of their babies!)

this set includes a small drawstring bag (great for carrying small toys with you, or for placing dirty clothes into your diaper bag), as well as a matching bib, sensory block, and sensory blanket.
